Breaking Bad - being re-run from the beginning

[Lurking Lawyer]

If, like me, you missed BB when it first aired and don't have a Netflix subscription, help is at hand!

I've had a Sky Never Miss reminder set for it for ages now, and an e-mail popped up just now to say that series 1 episode 1 will go out tonight at 11pm on a new channel, Spike - 160 on Sky. I think it's an episode per night thereafter (not sure whether how many series they will show though).

Surley you just download stuff rather than wait for it to be on the TV?!

I used to torrent lots of stuff but generally use a tablet now rather than a PC. The laptop gets fired up once in a blue moon and I'd have to be pretty excited to see something to warrant resorting to torrents.

BB is one of those things I figured I'd watch if it was screened again from the outset, to see whether it warranted the hype, but wasn't sufficiently fussed about to actively seek out.

I got so far behind with this that I've deleted them all and given up after (I think) the first three episodes. Ah well, another popular series has passed me by.

Given that I started this thread, you might assume that I had taken the time to actually watch them now they have finally appeared on Sky.

Nope, not a bit of it. I've got all of the episodes aired so far piled up on the Sky box, completely untouched.

I'll get around to it - eventually.....!

Well the fly episode has aired. It wasn't as bad as I expected, there was some decent character progress in it.

Lurking Lawyer, what are you thoughts on it so far?

Only just spotted this!

Embarrassingly, I still haven't got around to starting it yet. There are 40-odd episodes sitting on the Sky+ box waiting to be watched. I'll get there, eventually!

Holy thread resurrection, Batman!

It only took me nine months but I've finally started to work my way through the 62 episodes that had piled up on the Sky+ box. Six episodes in three nights - it lives up to the hype!

Each to their own..... :shrug:

I finally finished working my way through the episodes recorded last year.

It lost its way a bit midway through, and my interest waned a little during series 4, but on the whole I still think it lived up to its reputation.

In contrast to something like The Sopranos, the ending was pretty satisfying.

Were going to have to agree to disagree about that - and it's a whole different discussion for another thread anyway!
